Sealed UnderDeep gates require a sacrifice to open. Sometimes it requires a deed of evil or a bodily fluid, or the giving up of hope or a bag of fresh kittens, and so on.
Other times, it depends entirely upon the value of that item to the person sacrificing it.
In the case of Kip, ClownBite tater-nugs must be a valuable thing.
"Wot, no burger?" was a recent vaudevillian punchline from our trip to San Francisco. I simply had to get it into the comic in order to remember it's power. Thanks Mike Daley and Deb Aoki for the laffs.
